I just started writing the dahlia breeding experiment blog post coming out in a couple of weeks, and I can't wait to show you the dahlias which made it to the end of the dahlia growing season.

I now need to dig them up out of the ground and store them safely until next spring.

I've just finished recording my dahlia growing season, and grew a total of 94 dahlias this year. I grew 48 named varieties, and 46 seedlings. I'm only keeping 12 seedlings to grow next year, and half of them are Floret Petite varieties.

So far the scathing editorial I wrote for the Vancouver Dahlia Society's 'zine has been well received.
